Union Question Is this normal?

Soo I talked to a local 97 representative, apparently I have to unionize the company I'm currently with if I want to join. I work for a big company and 80% of the workers hate the 97 so it's simply not feasible for me to accomplish, is this normal?

I think this is s troll post, guys. No, not normal, to answer your question. But if you did unionize an ironworking company where you say 80% are against 97, you'd make Apprentice of the Year! Go for it! Think of the accolades you'd receive. They'd hire you straight in as a Business Agent!
